There’s No Paper Trail – Do I Have a Case?

While sexual discrimination may be hard to prove, it is also hard to hide. Employers who engage in gender discrimination often exhibit a pattern in promotions, hirings, and firings. Additionally, HR records, computer email, and work history cannot hide a person’s performance – whether it deserves to be recognized or censured. When discrepancies exist between how a person is rewarded or treated at work and what their performance reviews indicate, investigation can often reveal double standards and discrimination.
